The true heretic is not the one who ignores the teachings of church leaders, but rather the one who ignores the teachings of Christ in the four gospels. Heresy is not disagreeing with human tradition; heresy is calling “gospel” what Jesus never taught. Nothing in the words of Christ supports the false doctrine of ”unmerited favor,” which so many leaders love and teach. But Jesus did not leave us in the dark; He trained apostles and disciples to obey the Father strictly, and this standard path applies to both Jews and gentiles. All of them kept the Sabbath, circumcision, forbidden meats, the use of tzitzits, the beard, and all the other statutes of the Lord. Salvation is individual; obey while you are alive. | “Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.” (2 John 9)
